Real Madrid Confidencial Alaba and Rüdiger, K.O. for the next two or three weeks, the dates they will miss
Real Madrid loses two of its available center-backs in just four days
Carlo Ancelotti doesn't win for disappointments with the defense this season. After the latest mishap with Antonio Rüdiger, in which the German got injured, Real Madrid confirmed David Alaba's absence.
After the medical tests, it has been confirmed that the Austrian suffers an injury in the adductor of the left leg. The club has indicated that his recovery will depend on his progress, although he is expected to be out of the field for 2 to 3 weeks.
Which matches will David Alaba miss?
This way, David Alaba, who was expected to be a starter in the Copa match against CD Leganés, will not be able to be present. Additionally, the defender will also miss the Madrid classic and the first leg against Manchester City.
The Austrian will not be able to travel to the match that Madrid will play at El Sadar and remains pending for the return match of Champions. However, the player's physical condition indicates that, even if he is available, he won't have many minutes in the upcoming matches.
David Alaba, who was already adding some minutes, will have to start from scratch and be out for a few weeks. When he returns, Carlo Ancelotti will gradually bring him back, but it would be unusual to see him against Manchester City at Bernabéu.
The injury that Alaba suffers in the adductor is considered a normal consequence after the extensive recovery of his knee. This way, it is ruled out that it is a relapse or that the player has been subjected to excessive load.
Which matches will Antonio Rüdiger miss?
Meanwhile, Antonio Rüdiger's injury looks somewhat better. The German will miss the same matches as David Alaba, but he is working day and night to return for the City return leg.
Carlo Ancelotti's goal is to be able to count on his most outstanding defender for one of the most important matches. However, the Italian coach will miss his defender for the key commitment against Atlético de Madrid.
Antonio Rüdiger, who was being one of the most used players by Carlo Ancelotti, got injured after being in discomfort for a while. At Real Madrid, it didn't come as a surprise, but they believe it's bad luck that the absence comes at this time.
